Explanation:

you can use proportions to convert molecules to moles and then moles to grams.

To convert molecules to moles, use the Avogadro number (6,022 × 10²³ atoms)

The proportion is:

1 : Avogadro number = x : number of molecules

so

1 : 6,022 × 10²³ = x : 4,5 × 10²⁴

solve. x = 7,47 moles

From the moles you can get the grams of SO2. To find grams, first find the mass of SO2.

S = 32,06

O2 = (16×2) = 32

so mass of SO2 is 64,06

Now use the proportion:

mass of SO2 : 1 = moles : x

so

64,06 : 1 = 7,47 : x

solve. x = 0,11 grams
